A Few Days Later. I'm sitting there in role call. Swersky's rambling on about being safe and don't be a hero; he gives us the same speech everyday! I breathe heavily as he begins to wrap it up. I noticed that Faith wasn't here today. I swear to God, I thought she worked today.
"Gustler, you're with Boscorelli on David."
Oh Jesus, I roll my eyes, not Gustler, that kid can't handle anything. I swear Faith, where are you?
"Go and be safe, "Swersky said wrapping up his sermon.
"Uh...Lieu...Where's Yokas at today?" I asked walking up there.
"She called off suddenly; didn't say why."
"Oh..." I said looking at him confusedly.
I walked out of the room and ran into Davis and Sully.
"Know where she is?"
"Nope."
"That's really not like her..."
"Yeah I know..." I said thinking.
We stood in silent for a minute.
"Well have fun with Junior today." Sully said as they began to walk off.
I scoffed at him as I walked down the steps.
"Let's go, Gustler!" I yelled as I walked by him as he sat on the bench with the radios and twiddled his thumbs.
"Yes, Sir." He said standing up following me out to the car, "Where's Officer Yokas today?"
"I don't know." I said abruptly getting into the car and starting the engine, "She called off."
God I hated riding with him. All he did was sit there like a bump on a log staring out the window. He never spoke unless spoken too and never added in his two cents. Why did that kid always have to be so damn polite.
"5-5 David, we have a domestic disturbance over at 1-3-2 and Lexington." the radio buzzed.
Grrrreeeeeaaaaaattttt! a domestic disturbance call with the more scared kid in all of New York; someone yells and he's off like a car....I look over at him...
"5-5 David, we have a domestic disturbance over at 1-3-2 and Lexington." the radio buzzed again.
"Did you wanna answer that?" I asked him slowly.
He looked over at me, like a kid, ""5-5 David, 1-3-2 and Lexington. 10-4"
"Welcome back to reality David."
DUH!, My eyes got big. I look at my watch....only....7 hours and 15 more minutes with him.
I flipped on the sirens and began coasting down the street.
"Gustler, you're with Boscorelli on David."
Oh Jesus, I roll my eyes, not Gustler, that kid can't handle anything. I swear Faith, where are you?
